But I found this guy long ago and he raises some pretty good questions (whether he is right or not). It seems self evident that the granitic continental pieces fit together perfectly as he suggests... And if that is not enough, or is discounted, the next question to ask is, "Then where is the rest of the granitic layer?"
No doubt his graphic representation works perfectly... And on it's face is more acceptable than the Pangea demonstrations I have seen. I don't know that he is correct however - and I largely disagree with his reason the earth is growing.
Thanks - food for thought.
Sorry, but your guy is creating a solution for a problem that does not exist. Plate techtonics does a fine job explaining how oceanic crust is both created and destroyed without expanding the overall average size of the Earth.
I don't waste time on such charlatans. And I recognize the breathless writing style typical of Internet snake oil salesmen.
“I speak jive.”
Airplane! Great stuff!
I can prove that internal combustion engines actually run on nuclear fusion if you would just open your mind and ignore all that sciencey stuff.
They are a collection of supposed supporting evidence, are they not? They show all the reasons why this guy is right.
The problem is you can present compelling evidence for almost anything, if you just pick out things that support you. It's called Confirmation Bias, and it's not science. What you have to look at is where it might be proven wrong, not where it's claims are supposedly upheld. A good theory is one that's not falsified.
How does a planet grow that much? Where is the mass coming from? Where is all the extra water coming from to fill in the gaps between the land masses?
Also, there are problems with his videos. In some places he is showing stretching without stretchmarks. And...when you put a skin of a small sphere on a larger sphere, there are going to be places where the skin puckers or bunches up. He doesnt show any bunching occurring in his animations. That is not very scientific.
I saw an ad for the next episode of Ancient aliens.
Georgio says “The ancient Mayan calendar looks remarkably like the large HADRON collider. (They’re both round) Coincidence? I think not.” LOL
The whole time I was reading it I was asking myself why nobody ever thought of this before?
This is literally an earth-shattering insight.
This adds credence to the idea that petroleum is still being generated inside the earth.
40 years from now none of this will matter to me. That’s if I live to be a hundred. If I live to be 80 it won’t matter in 20 years.
not trying to debunk anything, i simply sound this formation about four miles from my house and thought it was cool... i watched all 13 parts and my only question is, where did all the water come from???
inside or is he saying at one time completely covering the earth till it split up enough for the water to recede?
Better check the air in your tires just to be on the safe side.
A) mid-ocean spreading
B) subduction
C) strike/slip fault
I’m gonn’a wait for the youtube of a prehensile tail falling off or gradually shortening

You ask a lot of great questions. He answers them all in the videos, or in other write-ups on his site.
In some places he is showing stretching without stretchmarks.
I forget which video it is, but he goes to great lengths to show the stretch marks on planetary surfaces. That's exactly what he calls them, too.
What I've seen at that site is a lot more compelling and convincing than the theory that the continents are drifting around the planet, crashing and bumping into one another. No one has yet explained how that is even possible.
Take a look at the video where he shows the expansion of North America. When he runs that expansion in reverse, you can see all the fragments of Northern Canada fit back together like the pieces of a jig-saw puzzle. That's not just theoretical. They fit together precisely. I don't call that bias.
Glad you showed up and partook of the banquet of ideas presented.
